I woke up with a start as my alarm went off, scrambling to turn the thing off before it woke up Jim, I was unfortunately too late on that one. He woke up and pulled me back into his chest as soon as I moved. I knew he was awake now “Happy birthday” I whispered to him as I turned over in his hold. “Hmmm, glad you remembered” Jim murmured cheekily as he started laying butterfly kisses on me. “I’ve been apologising for that since the 23rd last year” I whined, “mmm, stay here in bed with me and we’ll call it even” Jim smiled into my neck. “But I have something for you!” I say lightly batting him away. “Whatever it is can wait until tomorrow” he took my hand away and intertwined our fingers. “Noooo” I whine, “I want you to have it now” I take my hand away and boop his nose. “It’s my present I thought I was supposed to be impatient for it, not you” he joked and tried to take my hand back. “I’ll be right back!” I shout as I jump up out of bed and run out to the couch. I reach under and feel around for the box I had hid there. I found it and then ran to the kitchenette for the other one. Finding right where I left it, I ran back to Jim. “Here!” I say and toss him the one from the kitchen. Turning it over in his hands you looks up at me sceptically. “You know I don’t really drink” he looks at me sadly before looking back to the bottle in its paper bag. “No, but your CMO does” I smirk at him, “and from what I hear, you owe him quite a few drinks” I say playfully, knowing he still hasn’t seen that I have a second. “Let me get this right” he looks me in the eye with that impish glint, “you got Bones a present for my birthday?” He asks. “Don’t get yourself in a twist, I got you one too” I say and toss him the box as I hop back into bed. He opens it eagerly, tossing the scraps on the ground. I roll my eyes, not that he sees, I’ll clean up after him later. Jim looks to me “You shouldn’t have!” He smiles brightly as he runs his hands over the new blanket, still in its box. “Well, take it out” I urge with a knowing smiling. Jim whips the blanket out of the box and a book goes flying out. Jim rushes to get it and tears prick the corners of his eyes as he looks back at me. Flipping through all the pictures of us he asks, “How did you even get all of these?”. I smile at him, “It was easy, I’ve had the whole crew taking pictures of us together, also since the 23rd” I grunt as Jim pins me in a tight hug. “I love it thank you!” He exclaims, only slightly muffled by the face full of my shirt he currently has.
